As I understand, it's common, and the good way to have NB9.0 in community repository. I have since then put the package in IgnorePkg and kept using the 8.2 version. There are actually AUR packages for NB8.2 [1], and the nightly version of NB9.0 [2] which can be compiled with all the plugins that are not distributable in binary form. Let's suppose I want to create an AUR package to compile the full version of Netbeans 9.0, but I don't want it to conflict the preexisting version installed from community, what is the correct course of action? In which path should I install it?

For that use case I would just throw it in $HOME instead of writing a package and putting it on aur.
